This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

While compile testing on less common architectures, I noticed that gcc-10 on
s390 finds a bug that all other configurations seem to miss:

drivers/net/ethernet/myricom/myri10ge/myri10ge.c: In function 'myri10ge_set_multicast_list':

It would be nice to understand how to make other compilers catch this as
well, but for the moment I'll just shut up the warning by fixing the
undefined behavior in this driver.

<title>treewide: Drop pci_save_state() after pci_restore_state()</title>

<content type='text'>
In 2009, commit c82f63e411f1 ("PCI: check saved state before restore")
changed the behavior of pci_restore_state() such that it became necessary
to call pci_save_state() afterwards, lest recovery from subsequent PCI
errors fails.

The commit has just been reverted and so all the pci_save_state() after
pci_restore_state() calls that have accumulated in the tree are now
superfluous.  Drop them.

Two drivers chose a different approach to achieve the same result:
drivers/scsi/ipr.c and drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/netdev.c set the
pci_dev's "state_saved" flag to true before calling pci_restore_state().
Drop this as well.

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree
over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

Simon reported that ndo_change_mtu() methods were never
updated to use WRITE_ONCE(dev-&gt;mtu, new_mtu) as hinted
in commit 501a90c94510 ("inet: protect against too small
mtu values.")

We read dev-&gt;mtu without holding RTNL in many places,
with READ_ONCE() annotations.

It is time to take care of ndo_change_mtu() methods
to use corresponding WRITE_ONCE()
